Mr. President. I am also pleased that this bill takes a number of steps toward ending the abuse of the welfare system by those legal immigrants who come to America. not to go to work but to go on welfare. That is not true with every person who comes to America. it is not true with most people who come to America. but it is true with some. and they ought not to be getting welfare benefits if they are not an American citizen while Americans who are working hard. trying to pay their bills are providing it. That is simply wrong.
